Long-time readers of this blog will remember my awesome friend Mrs Redneck, star of such posts as Charming Chartres, Vincennes with the Rednecks and the ever-popular Reims with the Rednecks. Well, she had the nerve to abandon me and move back to the States in January but at least she came back for a visit in September. And since I arranged my schedule so that I didn't have to work while she was here, and since Mrs Redneck is a big fan of the "well, you'll sleep enough when you're dead" philosophy of travel, we were slightly busy while she was here. To wit, this is what we did in one week:

Two chateaux
Two parks
Three cemeteries
Three cathedrals
Four events
Five museums
Seven restaurants
Eighteen cafés

Not to mention about 8000 miles of walking (slight exaggeration) and taking 1,113 photos (no exaggeration at all, I just counted). Which is the reason why I haven't managed to get around to writing about it - I'm still sifting through all those photos. But it's all coming soon...

About Me

I'm Canadian (from Toronto), spent nine years living in the UK (London) and then moved to Paris to finally write my novel. Where better to be a starving writer? Got tired of starving and moved to Saudi Arabia to make some money. Hopefully this will make the blog more interesting as I will get to travel more now...
